Recycling becomes a bigger business each year, which creates a need not only for more balers, but also larger-volume balers. American Baler Co. has responded to this challenge with the HS8543. The HS stands for "High Speed," an increasingly desirable baler trait for recycling companies that handle massive amounts of incoming paper, plastic and light metal scrap.
The HS8543 can handle the massive streams of materials that will be directed its way in a high-volume material recovery facility (MRF) or paperstock plant.
Just how high-speed is the HS8543? Here are some of the numbers:
• Cycle Time: 7.8 seconds
• Production Capacity: Up to 60 tons per hour (ONP & high grades)
• Bale Weight: Up to 2,500 pounds
• Feed Opening: Up to 80.5 inches by 41.5 inches
The HS8543’s large feed opening and twin motors help provide the impressive productivity and unmatched bale density that will have large-volume recyclers clamoring for the machine once they see it in action.
